Monday was a tough day for Bills cornerback Leodis McKelvin. He fumbled the football at the end of the Monday night match-up against the New England Patriots, and came home to find his lawn vandalized.
"I mean it is scary to a point you know, you got a lot of incidents that happen to football players and it is a way you know how far you can take it," said McKelvin at Bills media day today.
Neighbors of McKelvin noticed the spray paint on the cornerback's lawn Monday evening, which sources tell Eyewitness News contained an obscenity, along with the game's final score and the words "Take a Knee".
The incident became public knowledge when McKelvin's teammate Kawika Mitchell sent out a Tweet Tuesday morning.
"...it is just extremely dangerous when someone is going to come to your house and do anything that is going to affect you," Mitchell added today.
Hamburg Police officials tell Eyewitness News that they have identified two suspects in the crime, who have given Buffalo fans a black-eye across the nation.
"...it was shocking to me because that is not how the fans here are," noted Bills wide receiver Lee Evans.
McKelvin says that does not wish for anyone to be arrested for the act, adding, "our fans have been great. It is just one incident and I hope it does not happen anymore. I just don't want anybody to get arrested."
